The collection of original paintings and special/limited edition prints on this site has been divided into two catagories: Studio Paintings and Plein Air Paintings. The subject matter in this body of work is from places I have visited, from Texas to Georgia to Maine, as well as some western work.

Plein Air paintings are small paintings usually painted entirely on location in a couple of hours or so. Some plein air pieces have some final touches applied in the studio.

The Studio paintings are larger works painted in the studio, usually working with photographs as reference.

Works avaiblabe at Adobe Western Art Gallery in the Historic Fort Worth Stockyards and the Weiler House Fine Art Gallery in Handley (817-457-3343)

What is a Giclée?

Like the long standing European tradition of rendering one image at a time, these giclée images are printed one at a time on canvas. These unique prints capture even the most subtle tints and minute details of the original painting. Giclée prints render deep, saturated color which are as close to the original artwork as is possible.
